Abstract

This thesis covers the design, implementation, and manufacturing methodology of a custom mouthpiece for the automatic toothbrush in development by Dental Robotics. The results are a proof-of-concept digital processing pipeline, a functional prototype, an evaluation of custom mouthpiece efficacy relative to the standard mouthpiece, and a recommended manufacturing setup.
